Lot Title: 1805 NGC VG details/improperly cleaned.
Description: Courteous Collection of Early Type. Details might be approaching the Fine level on the reverse, where a complete motto and fully defined shield lines would typically confer that grade. However, NGC detected the fine swirling hairlines that suggest an old and fairly innocuous cleaning, although we also note a pair of tiny blunt hits just near the center of the shield. (PCGS# 005313)
Low Estimate: $400.00

443The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$210.00
1805 quarter with contemporary clipping.
Courteous Collection of Early Type. The diameter has been visibly reduced by clipping of the edge, quite likely performed while this coin was still circulating. One can assume this met a nefarious...
381The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$575.00
1805 (B-2, R.2) PCGS VG-8.
Iron-grey patina dominates the surfaces and provides evidence of decent originality. Large planchet bust quarters often seem able to have avoided most contact marks, and this one is affected only by...
368The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$875.00
1805 "B-3" VF.
In spite of a rather subdued, low-contrast color scheme featuring ashy-grey devices atop charcoal fields, eye-appeal is quite respectable, deriving from what seems to be original patina. While the...
369The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$1,250.00
1805 "B-3", Die State V. VF.
From the standpoint of detail and vintage surface quality, this is an outstanding coin. Surfaces reveal perfect dusky-grey charcoal fields that contrast nicely with pewter-grey details, and all...
445The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$5,000.00
1805 "B-3", PCGS Genuine.
An earlier state of the reverse die permitted a better strike than usual, including finely sculpted feathers just above the shield. This coin has "Extremely Fine" details, though PCGS elected only to...
543The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$300.00
1805 (B-4 R.3) Draped Bust quarter, G-6
Nearly qualifies for a higher grade, as the rims are fully defined and part of the reverse motto shows. However, a few to many hairlines and a lack of some central hair definition refute a higher...
457The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$425.00
1805 B-3 F-15 Detail, Plugged.
A small hole has been plugged and the detail re-engraved with remarkable skill and accuracy on both sides. A later die-state as demonstrated by the very prominent die clash, especially on the...
505The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$1,650.00
1805 AU-50 Cleaned.
A piece that is far above average aesthetically, even though it has been subjected to a delicate cleaning. Golden highlights adorn its medium gray surfaces. Adjustment marks are perceived on its...
1242The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$190.00
1805 VG-8.
An attractive gray coloration with a hint of lavender blankets the relatively smooth surfaces of this popular type issue.
524The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$40.00
1805 VG-8 Scratched.
At one point in time I am sure that this was an awesome coin. Now the coin is well worn and has the letter "W" scratched on the obverse. The wear is even, and it hasn't been cleaned.
